We are dedicated to strengthening and supporting Catholic marriages. Our goal is to provide resources that uncover leading psychological causes of marital conflicts, along with St. John Paul II's writings on marriage and family life, and the timeless wisdom of the Catholic Church.
About Habits for a Healthy Marriage
Habits for A Healthy Marriage is unique because it draws on the field of positive psychology, which focuses on growth in virtues. Each chapter names a common marital problem along with a particular virtue that can help couples to overcome that problem. It shows that the road to healing is paved with forgiveness, not only between spouses but also within their families of origin.
Habits for a Healthy Marriage Training
Training in Habits for a Healthy Marriage: A Handbook for Catholic Couples will be offered online in the future for mental health professionals, those involved in the pastoral care of the family through Pre Cana and marital enrichment programs, clergy, marriage tribunal staff, family physicians, and graduate students.
If you are interested in being put on the mailing list for HHM training or
